2023 Aug 6 - Summer Bass

Fishing has been slow since the water has gotten so warm in the summer months.  We may not catch a lot of fish but occasionally we catch a good one. Today was Frank’s day with this largemouth that gave him a good fight. He actually thought he was stuck on a rock when the fish first hit his lure! It wasn’t a rock it was this lunker! We tried to get a weight on him, but unfortunately the scale was not working properly.

2023 Aug 3 - Baby Loon Has Grown

It has only been 3 weeks since we saw this baby loon but the change is dramatic. It was a fluffy brown newborn and now it is so much bigger!

It was a good day for seeing wildlife. We also saw a Bald Eagle land in a tall pine tree right near us. It was watching us fish probably hoping we would leave a fish for it to scoop up. We saw an eagle earlier this year, dive down and grab a fish right from the surface of the water. I didn’t get a picture of that but did get one picture today.
